23 Things That Happen When You Date A Skinny Man

    "Here, you can sleep in my tracksuit bottoms." "Ummmm."

    1. People will say, "Your boyfriend is very skinny" a lot.

    2. Sometimes, when you lay on your S.O.'s chest, you will roll off his ribcage.

    3. Other times, when you rest your head on his shoulder, you will get poked in the ear by his shoulder blade.

    4. Because your boyfriend has some kind of superhuman metabolism, he can eat a million times more food than you and not put on weight.

    5. He also doesn't have to exercise. Ever.

    6. Because your boyfriend is so thin, he gets drunk incredibly quickly.

    7. Which means he often falls asleep during house parties.

    8. Whenever you hang out with your S.O.'s family, everyone will ask whether he's eating properly.

    9. And if you're having dinner with his grandparents, they'll practically force-feed him.

    10. Buying him a watch as a gift is a tricky business.

    11. Same goes for most clothes.

    12. But if you're ever stuck for present ideas, you can always get him a belt. Skinny men always need belts.

    13. Sleeping in his T-shirts just isn't comfortable.

    Sure, they fit. But in a "If I lose a bit of weight for summer, this'll look good" way, rather than in a snuggly boyfriend way.

    14. And some of his tracksuit bottoms don't fit you at all, which makes you feel like a whale.

    15. From time to time, he will try to ~bulk up~ by eating more snacks.

    16. But if you need someone to squeeze into an awkwardly narrow space, he's the man for the job!

    17. Being really skinny means your S.O. is cold a lot of the time.

    18. If you sit on a bench or any other hard surface for a long time, your S.O. will get really sad because his bum is too bony.

    19. Sometimes, when you're watching TV, your S.O. will say, "That's the kind of body I'd like to have" and your literal heart will break in two.

    20. So you've memorised all the skinny celebrities who are really fit.

    21. The first time you strip your S.O., you may discover that he is wearing a vest in order to look bigger.

    22. Sometimes you will want to say the sentence, "Pull up your trousers." But then you realise he can't help it and you are not his nan.

    23. But most of all, you love him just the way he is.
